Doesn't matter.
Sorry but it does matter. We paid for our tickets and we sat through an evening of mediocre Steelers. We didn’t leave. We stayed to watch OT. We deserved to see our team battle to the end. Instead they committed suicide in the most ludicrous fashion.
Disagree.

We all knew it was a DR game before a puck was dropped.

To say we 'committed suicide' by trying something a bit different in O/T is a very odd thing to say.

I would suggest letting it go and focus on the next league game which is far, far more important.

Dead rubber, and players probably still a little fatigued from Wednesday. A few positives to take away though.

Golod - 2 games in and is starting to settle already. Still needs more time to get D systems but his obvious offensive talent seems to have allowed him to pick up in the offensive systems quicker. Got some serious hands, and looks like he will help the powerplay a lot.

Powerplay - much better. Different zone entries but also timing on the drop pass entry is now much better.

De Filippo - thought he was solid. No chance really on any of the goals (deflection on first, back door play on powerplay for second, 3rd the guy is given far to much time and space between the has marks).
